Invitation letters are very useful for inviting the guests to a ceremony or event. The language of the invitation letter must be very polite enough so that guests feel the warmth and love through the letter only.
The letter must clearly mention the type of event that is going to be organized. If the event is a black-tie event then the guest must be informed about the genre of the party. The sample invitation letter can be sent from some institution to some other institution for the purpose of inviting them to the event.
